With concentrated alkali, fission occurs at the position adjacent to the carbonyl group to give acetic acid and a mono-substituted acetic acid the process is termed acid hydrolysis. 

Compounds containing a double or triple bond, usually activated by additional unsaturation (carbonyl, cyano, nitro, phenyl, etc.) In the ap position, add to the I 4-positions of a conjugated (buta-1 3-diene) system with the formation of a ax-membered ring. The ethylenic or acetylenic compound is known as the dieTwphile and the second reactant as the diene the product is the adduct. The addition is generally termed the Diels-Alder reaction or the diene synthesis. The product in the case of an ethylenic dienophile is a cyctohexene and in that of an acetylenic dienophile is a cyctohexa-1 4-diene. The active unsaturated portion of the dienophile, or that of the diene, or those in both, may be involved in rings the adduct is then polycyclic.

Specific Surface. The total surface area of 1 g of powder measured ia cm /g is called its specific surface. The specific surface area is an excellent iadicator for the conditions under which a reaction is initiated and also for the rate of the reaction. It correlates in general with the average particle size. The great difference in surface area between 6-p.m reduced iron powder and 7-p.m carbonyl iron powder (Table 3) cannot be explained in terms of particle size, but mainly by the difference between the very inregular-shaped reduced and the spherical carbonyl iron powders. 

DiisononylPhthalate andDiisodeeylPhthalate. These primary plasticizers are produced by esterification of 0x0 alcohols of carbon chain length nine and ten. The 0x0 alcohols are produced through the carbonylation of alkenes (olefins). The carbonylation process (eq. 3) adds a carbon unit to an alkene chain by reaction with carbon monoxide and hydrogen with heat, pressure, and catalyst. In this way a Cg alkene is carbonylated to yield a alcohol a alkene is carbonylated to produce a C q alcohol. Due to the distribution of the C=C double bond ia the alkene and the varyiag effectiveness of certain catalysts, the position of the added carbon atom can vary and an isomer distribution is generally created ia such a reaction the nature of this distribution depends on the reaction conditions. Consequendy these alcohols are termed iso-alcohols and the subsequent phthalates iso-phthalates, an unfortunate designation ia view of possible confusion with esters of isophthaUc acid. 

The role of IR spectroscopy in the early penicillin structure studies has been described (B-49MI51103) and the results of more recent work have been summarized (B-72MI51101). The most noteworthy aspect of a penicillin IR spectrum is the stretching frequency of the /3-lactam carbonyl, which comes at approximately 1780 cm" This is in contrast to a linear tertiary amide which absorbs at approximately 1650 cm and a /3-lactam which is not fused to another ring (e.g. benzyldethiopenicillin), which absorbs at approximately 1740 cm (the exact absorption frequency will, of course, depend upon the specific compound and technique of spectrum determination). The /3-lactam carbonyl absorptions of penicillin sulfoxides and sulfones occur at approximately 1805 and 1810 cm respectively. The high absorption frequency of the penicillin /3-lactam carbonyl is interpreted in terms of the increased double bond character of that bond as a consequence of decreased amide resonance, as discussed in the X-ray crystallographic section. Other aspects of the penicillin IR spectrum, e.g. the side chain amide absorptions at approximately 1680 and 1510 cm and the carboxylate absorption at approximately 1610 cm are as expected. 

For non-hydrogen-bonding polar compounds such as carbonyls and ethers, Tsonopoulos recommends that Eq. (2-68) be expanded to a third term that is a function of the reduced dipole moment ( I ) as described by Eqs. (2-71) through (2-73) ... 

In substitutive nomenclature the use of the prefix oxo- or the suffix -one means the insertion of =0 in place of two hydrogen atoms. This is straightforward when the parent carries a CHz group at the appropriate position (example 206), but often the insertion of =0 requires prior reduction of a double bond. When the prefix oxo- is employed, this is achieved by using the appropriate hydro- prefix terms (example 207). However, the suffix -one can be used without hydro , the required reduction being implied rather than overtly stated (example 208) if desired the position of the hydrogen atom introduced to accommodate the carbonyl can be indicated in parentheses (see also examples 123 and 124). 

Stabilization of the syn conformer in the gas phase is explained rather intuitively in terms of the extra stabilization due to increased interactions between the H atom in the OH group and the O atom in C=0 group. As one can see in Figure 5, the extra stabilization in the anti confonner in aqueous solution arises from the solvation energy, especially at the carbonyl oxygen site. 

In general terms, there are three possible mechanisms for addition of a nucleophile and a proton to give a tetrahedral intermediate in a carbonyl addition reaction. 

The effect of the bond dipole associated with electron-withdrawing groups can also be expressed in terms of its interaction with the cationic u-complex. The atoms with the highest coefficients in the LUMO 3 are the most positive. The unfavorable interaction of the bond dipole will therefore be greatest at these positions. This effect operates with substituents such as carbonyl, cyano, and nitro groups. With ether and amino substituents, the unfavorable dipole interaction is overwhelmed by the stabilizing effect of the lone-pair electrons stabilizing 3. 

The stabilizing role of other functional groups can also be described in resonance terms. Both electron-attracting groups such as carbonyl and cyano and electron-donating groups such as methoxy and dimethylamino have a stabilizing etfect on a radical intermediate at an adjacent carbon. The resonance structures which depict these interactions indicate delocalization of the unpaired electron onto the adjacent substituents ...
